    Mood swings involve sudden changes in how you feel at a particular time, shifting quickly from positive to negative emotions or vice versa.

    Sometimes you can identify the trigger, while other times it’s unclear.

    Missing meals, hormonal changes, or stress can contribute to these shifts. Everyone experiences mood swings occasionally, but frequent or intense ones may signal an underlying issue.

    If they disrupt daily life, it’s important to seek help.

    To manage mood swings, exercise regularly, eat balanced meals, practice deep breathing, and engage in enjoyable hobbies.

    Talking with trusted friends or consulting a doctor can also provide valuable support
